Best Food and Drink at Climate Pledge Arena
Big Chicken Market

If you’re going to Big Chicken Market and you can handle some spice, order the Uncle Jerome Sandwich. It’s a Nashville hot chicken sandwich with pickles and mayo. Otherwise, you can get one of the other delicious chicken sandwiches or chicken tenders.
Big Chicken Market also has Amazon’s “Just Walk Out” technology. You can scan your card, grab what you want, and get back to your seat without having to wait in a long line. Win-win.
Impossible Market & Impossible Test Kitchen
If you’re vegan or vegetarian, the Impossible Market and Impossible Test Kitchen are going to be godsends. These vendors put a meat-free spin on food like chicken nuggets, Philly cheesesteaks, and meatball subs by using Impossible’s plant-based alternatives.
The result is tasty, plentiful, and creative meal options. Having trouble making up your mind? Snag any of the above choices. Or go for the crowd favorites: the Impossible BBQ burger and chili cheese fries.
Din Tai Fung
Din Tai Fung is a Seattle sports stadium favorite. You’ll find this beloved vendor in T-Mobile Park, Lumen Field, and Climate Pledge Arena. Din Tai Fung brings a delicious and unexpected twist to the typical event food offerings. Grab Chinese food favorites like scrumptious chicken fried rice and dumplings. Or go with the garlicky, breaded crispy green beans.
Dough Joy
Dough Joy is another win for vegans at Climate Pledge Arena, especially if you’ve got a sweet tooth. Dough Joy is a local Seattle donut shop that serves a vast range of donuts in delicious flavors like vanilla biscoff and strawberry milkshake. The donuts are all plant-based too! At Climate Pledge, you can grab a selection of Dough Joy’s delicious vegan donuts at dessert carts and Local Lolli.
Molly D Burgers
Molly D Burgers serves one of the most curious, but interesting foods at Climate Pledge Arena. Come here to try the peanut butter & jelly corndog. This delicious concoction is a Hemplers hot dog covered in peanut butter, fried partially in pancake batter, and with a delicious strawberry jam to dip it into. It’s an unusual but tasty twist on the standard corndog.
If you’re not feeling the corndog, try one of the delicious smash burgers from this new Climate Pledge Arena food vendor. Try the royal single burger for a classic burger that will satisfy your taste buds.
Uptown Market
Uptown Market has tasty offerings. Its Italian beef sandwich with juicy beef and peppers and onions is a hit. Combine that with the kimcheese fries topped with kimchi and a delicious crema, and you’ve got a winning combo.
Just Poke
Local chain Just Poke is another great place to eat at Climate Pledge Arena if you’re searching for something a bit different. Enjoy delicious and fresh tuna and salmon poke bowls, or go with the classic Hawaiian ahi tuna bowl, served on a tasty bed of seaweed salad. This is a great option if you want something a bit healthier than the standard arena food.
Mercer Street Mac & BBQ
Barbecue lovers, head to Mercer Street Mac & BBQ. It serves exactly what it says in the name. This comfort food will fill you up. Choose the meat-loaded, smoked brisket sandwich and have it with the equally tasty pulled pork mac and cheese.
Bristol Bay Wild Market
In a city as well-known for its seafood as Seattle, it makes sense that one of the best food options at Climate Pledge Arena is the Bristol Bay Wild Market. The tasty variety of seafood is sure to satisfy. Get the salmon chowder bread bowl which will both warm and fill you up. If you want a sure-to-satisfy classic, you can’t go wrong with the Alaska cod fish and chips.
Sound Pizza
What would an arena be without a classic pizza offering? There are several places to get pizza in Climate Pledge Arena, but Sound Pizza stands above the rest. Order a slice from this Detroit-style pizza joint. The crust is thick, the toppings are generous, and it’s an all-around good choice for pizza lovers.
Beer and Alcoholic Drinks
Yes, you can get beer and a variety of other alcoholic drinks at Climate Pledge Arena! The arena has a pretty large beer selection. Beers are sourced from Washington and Oregon, and they now have value options. You can get a rotating 16 oz craft beer or a Miller Lite for about $10 at Climate Pledge Arena. However, the majority of beers will cost more.
Other alcoholic drinks you can get at Climate Pledge Arena include wine and a selection of mixed drinks. These are served at several bars throughout the arena.
Keep in mind that the prices for all drinks, even non-alcoholic ones, are high at Climate Pledge Arena. It’s a good idea to bring your water bottle (which you can fill up there) or wait until after the event to go out to a nearby bar for drinks.
